Ars Technica did an in-depth review of what's new on Mac OS X; surprisingly, a lot of it has good information for non-Mac development.
OpenCL in Mac OS X: * http://arstechnica.com/apple/reviews/2009/08/mac-os-x-10-6.ars/14 * http://arstechnica.com/apple/reviews/2009/08/mac-os-x-10-6.ars/15 LLVM and Clang: * http://arstechnica.com/apple/reviews/2009/08/mac-os-x-10-6.ars/9 * http://www.llvm.org/ * http://clang.llvm.org/ * http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ In short, Apple is planning to replace GCC with LLVM as its standard C/C++ compiler. More importantly, Apple is pushing hard for development of Clang, and its Static Code Analysis technology. Like GCC, LLVM and Clang are open source. Currently Apple is claiming that these tools produce executables that are 5-25% faster than GCC 4.2, with 1/3 the compile time. _______________________________________________ opencpi_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opencpi.org/listinfo.cgi/opencpi_dev-opencpi.org
